Abstract:

In recent years, low-dimensional lead-free metal halides have attracted extensive attention due to their unique optical properties, low toxicity and excellent environmental stability. In this paper, Cs2ZnCl4∶Ce3+, Cs2ZnCl4∶Mn2+ and Cs2ZnCl4∶Ce3+,Mn2+ microcrystals are prepared by hydrothermal method. The phase and luminescence characteristics of the microcrystals are characterized by X-ray diffractometer and fluorescence spectrometer. In a series of Ce3+ ions doped and Ce3+ and Mn2+ ions co-doped Cs2ZnCl4 microcrystals, Ce3+ ions emit at 254 nm in the ultraviolet region, and its emission peak is at 350 nm, corresponding to the 4f-5d transition of Ce3+ ions. In Cs2ZnCl4 microcrystals doped with Mn2+ ions and Ce3+ and Mn2+ ions, Mn2+ ions all exhibit green light emission in the visible region at 361 nm, and the emission peak is located at 530 nm, which corresponds to the 4T16A1 transition of Mn2+ ions in tetrahedral environment. In Cs2ZnCl4 microcrystals doped with Ce3+ and Mn2+ ions, the emission spectra of Ce3+ and Mn2+ ions only have their respective luminescence peaks corresponding to their respective excitation peaks, which is a phenomenon of excitation wavelength dependence. In addition, the compound can be applied to fluorescence anti-counterfeiting and information encryption applications in the future because of its obvious excitation wavelength dependence.
